题目二
Many businesses see the use of telecommunications in the sales, marketing and product delivery processes as a significant way of cutting costs. The two forms of telecommunications often talked about are the telephone and the internet. Thus we have seen the emergence of phone banking and internet banking in the United Kingdom,the United States and Australia, as well as in high-income Europe. The cost savings? Phone banking costs are about 50 per cent of branch-based transactions costs. Internet banking costs are about 20 per cent of those associated with the provision of branch-based transactions. But can these methods work well in Asia? The household penetration rates (the percentage of households with ownership or their own access) of telephones and internet in the Asian region for the year 2008 will give us some clues.
